286. Noah SHULTZ
He's a Union Army veteran of the Civil War, in K Company, 11th Tenn Cavalry. He enlisted 20 September, 1863 in Sevierville, TN. He was described as "5 feet 6 inches tall, fair complexion, blue eyes, dark hair, and a farmer". He was discharged as a Corporal on 24 March, 1865 in Knoxville, TN.
He moved to Anderson County with his father, after the War and before 1870, but very shortly after his marriage was back in Sevier County for the 1870 census (his older sister Amillia was living with them).
In his old age Noah suffered from tuberculosis (contracted during the War) and skin cancer. The skin cancer was severe, causing disfigurement of his face. He was bedridden for several months, and was cared for by his third wife, Matilda.
Her name is from Anderson County marriage records.
For many years it was widely thought that this child died at birth or died very young. However, I found her in the 1870 census in Anderson Co, TN with her father, Philip, and new step-mother, Mary (Black). However, Philip died very shortly after that, she disappeared again, and never re-appeared in Tennessee records. I found her next in Grayson Co, Texas where she had moved with her half-brother, Noah. An article in the "Ancestors and Descendants, Grayson Co, TX" said that she was the "orphaned daughter of a doctor" and that she and Noah "farmed in Sister Grove, TX". Her husband, William Little, was a law officer in Ardmore, Oklahoma. He fought in the Johnson County Range War, also known as the War on Powder River. [jrs]..
